Video cables

Post by Elesias » Fri Oct 08, 2004 3:40 pm

I was wondering if it was possible to find composite and/or S-Video cables to plug the A8 computers.

Why ? To plug the computer on a PC tv card. Obviously you have the RF possibility, but I guess the composite would be easier (no channel to find, and tune, etc...) and give a better video quality.

Does anybody here have an idea ? Or did someone already try this thing ?
Thanks.

Composite cables for PAL and NTSC machines are quite easy to find, but SECAM...

It should be possible to build one, though, if the pinouts are known.

By any chance, do you have a link ? My 65XE and 130XE are PAL computers.
Though I'd prefer to use my Secam 800XL...
